The University of Guam men's basketball team has signed two players from the U.S. mainland with Letters of Intent to play basketball for the Tritons in 2017-18.

The first player to sign was Geno Anderson, a 6-foot, 1-inch point guard/shooting guard from Wallace State Junior College in Alabama who has played on several minor league teams over the past several years and now returns to finish his education at UOG and play for the Tritons.

The second player to sign is Austin Treweek. Treweek is a 6-foot, 1-inch guard who is originally from the Melbourne, Australia area but played his senior year in high school in Logan, West Virginia. He averaged 15.3 points per game last year with five assists, three rebounds and two steals per game. In Australia, he averaged 21.3 points per game, with six assists, three rebounds and two steals per game. Austin picked UOG and its education value over signing with a professional league in Australia.

Information for this story was provided through a press release.
